Out Of Time
Dir: Carl Franklin
2003
***
Out of Time is a slightly above-average action thriller. It's entertaining enough but at times everything gets just that little bit too convenient which I'm afraid is down to the fault of unimaginative writing. To call it mediocre would be unfair, it's not great but it does have a certain unique charm to it. The cast is good, Dean Cain is totally underrated in my opinion (I've met him, he's a really nice man) but other than that though I'm afraid it is forgettable and feels like something we've seen before. The ending could have and should have been something special but unfortunately it was a clever twist away from satisfaction. A generous 3 out of 5 stars.
